Canada's Doug Ford wins Ontario election focused on Trump's tariffs

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : Ford, who often sported a "Canada is Not for Sale" hat and styled himself as Captain Canada throughout his election campaign, called the vote more than a year early, arguing that he should have a stronger mandate to navigate four years of potential economic chaos under Trump.
41% : Trump, who had agreed to a 30-day pause on his threatened tariffs on Canada and Mexico pending negotiations on border security, said on Thursday that the 25-percent levies would go into effect on March 4. Canadian and Mexican officials were due to meet Trump administration officials in Washington on Thursday and Friday to try to forestall the tariffs, which could deal a serious blow to the highly integrated North American economy.
